An Lucht Siúil” translates to “The Walking People” or more commonly “The Travelling People” in Irish (Gaeilge).
It’s the traditional term for the Irish Travellers, an indigenous nomadic ethnic group in Ireland with a distinct culture, language (Shelta), and heritage.
Honoring My Heritage
As someone with both Irish Traveller and Romani heritage, I’m honoring two distinct yet deeply connected nomadic traditions.
While Irish Travellers are indigenous to Ireland, and the Romani people trace their roots to northern India, both cultures share a powerful legacy of nomadism, strong family bonds, oral storytelling, and the experience of being misunderstood or excluded by mainstream society.
Through Gypsy and the nomads, I aim to celebrate these rich traditions—by carrying them forward with purpose, pride, and presence. This space is a tribute to the wisdom of my ancestors and a bridge for others to connect with authenticity, community, and healing.
Healthy Eating
For over 10 years, I’ve been eating and studying plant based whole foods and drinks, to find the right balance between nutrition and taste, my aim is to provide high vibrational foods and drinks for all to enjoy.
Holistic Healing
For 10 years I’ve been a practicing energy healer & breathing technique facilitator, combined with meditation - sound therapy & intuitive massage.
The vision for Gypsy and the nomads
Hi, my name is Daniel. I come from an ethnic community of Irish Travellers with Romani heritage. Since childhood, I’ve felt a deep connection to the old ways—how my parents and ancestors lived with freedom, community, and a closeness to nature. As the modern world grew louder and more disconnected, I found myself searching for that spirit again.
The first time I attended a festival, I experienced something that reminded me of those ancestral ways: the open fields, the tents, the shared meals, the music, and the joy. I knew then that festivals would forever be part of my life.
I’ve been traveling the world for over 25 years, attending many festivals and events. Within the festival scene, I’ve searched for a substance-free space with whole foods and drinks to nourish me, calming music to help me recuperate, and soothing vibes to rejuvenate my soul.Through deep reflection and gratitude for the festival scene, I asked myself what I could offer to give back to this community. Along my healing journey, the vision became clear—to create a space that incorporates my ethnic heritage and wellness practices, offering a sanctuary for all. At the heart of Gypsy and the nomads is the intention to share my ancestral way in a modern-day context—with reverence for the land, deep respect for community, and a commitment to healing.
